Masons honor Edwards for love of East Dallas

For her long and outstanding contributions to East Dallas, Edwin J. Kiest Masonic Lodge #1310 presented Judy Edwards (pictured above, second from left) with the 2018 Community Builder Award.

The award was created to enable a Lodge to recognize outstanding non-Masons who have distinguished themselves through their service to the community and have followed the same precepts, ideals and standards that have been established for Masonic behavior. Edwards recently received the award at a ceremony during the Lodge’s annual Open House.

Judy has been married to Ken Edwards for 53 years. Originally from Wisconsin, Judy and Ken moved to their current home in East Dallas in 1983, where they still reside. They have four adult children, 12 grandchildren and one Shih Tzu. — Patrick Travers
